I don't expect anyone to believe me, as this world isn't full on honest people but I was VAC banned because of a hacker whom gained access to my account without my knowledge. I've tried contacting Valve about it but they only copy+paste the same message every time, feels like I am talking to a brick wall. So no, I will not cheat on BO2. I recently got Garry's Mod 13, and I am still VAC banned on that. That came out recently (Well, isn't fully released yet) and I am still VAC banned on that... since it is a sequel from the old Gary's Mod does that mean it carried the VAC bans over so I couldn't play online on those? I am safe to activate my code on this account and I can play on all the servers?

Buy it on a new account sir. That one is flagged as a cheaters account. I don't like all my games on the same account anyway.

Some people bear the mark and keep using their main accounts and buy games on them despite the ban mark.In fact, i respect them more than the people who runs away from their marked accounts leaving their sins to rot away, hidden in a dark corner.

Not only that, but they get the constant reminder never to cheat again. With a fresh acount, you may be tempted to try cheating again.

I don't like all my eggs in the same basket anyway. Valve sometimes disables accounts. Most of the time it is warranted. Sometimes it is something like a paypal purchase went bad. In any case anyone can check and se bans on your account at anytime. This often has bad repurcusions.

The SSA prevents you from suing them (or at least threatens it). Either way if you chargeback or sue Steam, you will lose your account including every single game tied to it with no compensation at all.

That was time before.Nowadays you are only locked from purchasing/activating games and trading.You will still have access to your account and play your games.

I just can congatulation for Activision and Steam. They could make a good game for cheaters again. Black Ops 2 is in full with cheaters and the normal players are not able to play with it. Of course Steam not to do against the cheaters. Or Steam sell the cheater softvare? I think it is biggest bussiness that original game. BO2 is noob game with Activision and Steam.
